Health Education is a specialty of health science which focuses on the development and provision of health education services and programs which enhance health and wellbeing at the individual and community level. Health Educators develop a range of pedagogical strategies to communicate with the public. Health Education connects people to health care services and support, and is a major contributor to preventive primary health care.

Health Educators work in hospitals and community settings, where they provide health education to a range of adults and children, community groups, students, and staff. They advocate for the needs of the community, and develop relevant programs and events which promote wellbeing, nutrition, healthy habits, and the management of existing health conditions. In hospitals and schools, health educators can tailor education programs to suit the educational and training needs of stakeholders. Health Educator jobs usually require a Bachelor degree in a Health Science or related field.
